F2FS support

Alex Page and others added 2 commits September 8, 2014 07:53
Based on commit 4776c688c705b46925f9c9e1e6daf09692519fcf of Google's
Tegra 3 kernel for the 2012 Nexus 7.

commit 48fb6f4db940e92cfb16cd878cddd59ea6120d06 upstream.

Commit 65d8fc777f6d ("futex: Remove requirement for lock_page() in
get_futex_key()") removed an unnecessary lock_page() with the
side-effect that page->mapping needed to be treated very carefully.

Two defensive warnings were added in case any assumption was missed and
the first warning assumed a correct application would not alter a
mapping backing a futex key.  Since merging, it has not triggered for
any unexpected case but Mark Rutland reported the following bug
triggering due to the first warning.

The fact that it's a bug instead of a warning was due to an unrelated
arm64 problem, but the warning itself triggered because the underlying
mapping changed.

This is an application issue but from a kernel perspective it's a
recoverable situation and the warning is unnecessary so this patch
removes the warning.  The warning may potentially be triggered with the
following test program from Mark although it may be necessary to adjust
NR_FUTEX_THREADS to be a value smaller than the number of CPUs in the
system.

    #include <linux/futex.h>
    #include <pthread.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <sys/mman.h>
    #include <sys/syscall.h>
    #include <sys/time.h>
    #include <unistd.h>

    #define NR_FUTEX_THREADS 16
    pthread_t threads[NR_FUTEX_THREADS];

    void *mem;

    #define MEM_PROT  (PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE)
    #define MEM_SIZE  65536

    static int futex_wrapper(int *uaddr, int op, int val,
                             const struct timespec *timeout,
                             int *uaddr2, int val3)
    {
        syscall(SYS_futex, uaddr, op, val, timeout, uaddr2, val3);
    }

    void *poll_futex(void *unused)
    {
        for (;;) {
            futex_wrapper(mem, FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PI, 1, NULL, mem + 4, 1);
        }
    }

    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
        int i;

        mem = mmap(NULL, MEM_SIZE, MEM_PROT,
               MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);

        printf("Mapping @ %p\n", mem);

        printf("Creating futex threads...\n");

        for (i = 0; i < NR_FUTEX_THREADS; i++)
            pthread_create(&threads[i], NULL, poll_futex, NULL);

        printf("Flipping mapping...\n");
        for (;;) {
            mmap(mem, MEM_SIZE, MEM_PROT,
                 MAP_FIXED | MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
        }

        return 0;
    }
